Association of a polymorphism in a gene encoding a urate transporter with CKD progression
Abstract
Background and objectives: Hyperuricemia predicts a high risk for CKD progression but there is no large clinical trial in humans indicating that this relationship is causal in nature. The rs734553 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the GLUT9 urate transporter gene was strongly associated with uric acid (UA) levels in a large meta-analysis VSports手机版. .
Design, setting, participants, & measurements: This prospective study adopted the Mendelian randomization approach. The rs734553 SNP was used as an instrumental variable to investigate the relationship between UA and renal outcomes in a cohort of 755 patients with CKD who were enrolled between October 18, 2005, and October 2, 2008. The association between the polymorphism and UA was preliminary confirmed in a series of 211 healthy volunteers enrolled between January 1, 2001, and July 12, 2011, from the same geographic area as the patients with CKD. The study end point was a composite renal-end point (i V体育安卓版. e. , >30% decrease in the GFR, dialysis, or transplantation). Patients were followed up for a median of 36 months. .
Results: In healthy individuals, serum UA levels were highest in homozygotes for the T allele (risk allele), intermediate in heterozygotes for the same allele, and lowest in those without the risk allele (P<0. 001), but no such relationship was found in patients with CKD. In the CKD cohort, homozygotes (TT) and heterozygotes (GT) for the risk allele had a 2. 35 times higher risk (hazard ratio, 2. 35; 95% confidence interval, 1. 25 to 4. 42; P=0. 008) of CKD progression. The risk for CKD progression by rs734553 remained unmodified in analyses adjusting for proteinuria, GFR, and other classical and CKD-peculiar risk factors. V体育ios版.
Conclusions: A GLUT9 polymorphism, which is strongly associated with serum UA levels in healthy individuals of the general population with normal renal function, holds a strong predictive power for CKD progression. These findings are compatible with the hypothesis that the link between UA and CKD progression is causal in nature. VSports最新版本.
